underfed, and cruelly treated;
for all the wistful creatures in captivity,
that beat their wings against bars;
that beat their wings against bars;
.
for any that are hunted or lost or deserted,
for any that are hunted or lost or deserted,
or frightened or hungry;
We entreat for them all
Thy mercy and pity,
and for those who deal with them,
we ask a heart of compassion
Make us, ourselves,
to be true friends to animals
and so to share
to be true friends to animals
and so to share
the blessings of the Merciful.
